"Our goal with Navigate Virtual is to be the identity conference, providing an identity forum to host important conversations among identity practitioners and newcomers alike.

We will also show how SailPoint Predictive Identity is the next-generation of identity that enterprises require to secure today's digital workforce. We look forward to helping each attendee understand how to manage their new permanent reality, with identity governance as the foundation of it all."
